Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I am a poor wayfaring stranger
Traveling through this world alone
There is no sickness, toil nor danger
In that fair land to which I go
[Verse 2]
I'm goin' home to see my mother
I'm goin' home no more to roam
I am just goin' over Jordan
I am just goin' over home
[Verse 3]
I know dark clouds will hover o'er me
I know my pathway is rough and steep
But golden fields lie out before me
Where weary eyes no more will weep
[Verse 4]
I'm goin' home to see my father
I'm goin' home no more to roam
I am just goin' over Jordan
I am just goin' over home
[Verse 5]
I'll soon be free from every trial
This form shall rest beneath the sod
I'll drop the cross of self denial
And enter in that home with God
[Verse 6]
I'm goin' home to see my savior
I'm goin' home no more to roam
I am just goin' over Jordan
I am just goin' over home
